Short Hikes

The best way to explore our proposed Shenandoah Mountain National Scenic Area is to take a hike. The proposal area has 150 miles of trails, some of which are quite remote and challenging. ​​Following are some short hikes offering scenic views, good birding, a hemlock forest, a Civil War site, a waterfall, a historic fire tower, and more.
